Bo strikes out, the Biggio singles.

Vlad doubles and Biggio scores all the way from 1st.

Exciting kids!!

Vlad is turning it on in a big way.

BA up to .264 now. July 18 it was .238. I dont really care if he doesn't get Rookie of the Year award, but I think it would be cool if he hits 20 HR.

Woods-Richardson is really intriguing, I mean an 18 year old throwing 97mph and playing in high A, that speaks to high upside. The velocity is going to go up as he gets older and stronger.

Ya there is a lot to like there. I feel like he will hit some top 100 lists when the year is out.

If he continues to pitch well in high A the rest of the season, he will shoot into the top 100 prospect list and will be in AA next season.

Guys like him, Pardhino and Manoah could all realistically debut in MLB as early as 2021. A lot needs to go right but it's not farfetched, and these pitchers have elite potential.

Oh my goodness that was a bomb. Wow. Vladdy is on fire.

Regardless of what we all feel about transactions I think we can all agree that having Vlad is a very very very very good thing.

Pretty quiet in here. I thought more folks would be tuning in now that the kids are up and the Jays have been mashing for a month and a half now.

Vladdy is killing it. Starting to get a little of his swagger back. Closing in on a very respectable .800 OPS.

Bo, big, vladdy, and Jansen have 8 hits between them tonight. Including 3 HR's. Hard not to be bullish on their lineup going forward.

The Jays suck but at least there's some very nice pieces for the future. Bichette looks like he could be a very solid player for a long long time.

The Jays stink but at least they still reliably beat up on the few teams lower than them in the standings.

Vlad Jr has 21 RBI in his last 12 games.

Yeah young Vladdy is on a heater right now. There is no denying that he has immense talent at the plate.

Man, I cancelled most of my tv package, including sportsnet to save some money over the summer; I figured I wouldn't miss much with the Jay's this season, but they've just been blowing teams out in the last week or two.
Hopefully some of their pitching prospects work out, because the rest of the young guys look great.

Never stopped watching but now I wait until the condensed game comes out. Takes 15 minutes rather than 2.5-3 hours and they get all the good stuff

Fishing for the most Underrated Prospect dealt at the Deadline


Quote:
The July 31st trade deadline has passed, and over 50 prospects have been assigned new homes, most notably Taylor Trammell (Trevor Bauer trade), Jazz Chisholm (Zac Gallen trade), and Jesus Sanchez (Nick Anderson trade). However, there is one prospect who was dealt this month whom I feel experts are strongly underrating. For now, let’s call him “Mystery Player.”

Gurriel - 2.1 WAR (290 PA's)
Vladdy - 1.5 WAR (331 PA's)
Biggio - 1.1 WAR (230 PA's)
Jansen - 0.8 WAR (295 PA's)
Bichette - 0.4 WAR (20 PA's)

Pretty impressive rookie group so far.
